nl_langinfo Problem

It seems that I am addressing a FreeBSD problem after a Perl installation 
and a rebuild of the shared lib files

Now some perl programs don't work and some apparently non-perl programs have 
suferred the same faith as well.
Its a bit confusing and help is needed !!

Under Perl 5.8.2 installed an API and rebuilt shared lib hint files 
,/var/run/ld.so.hints /var/run/ld-elf.so.hints, w/ ldconfig -aout,  ldconfig 
-elf, followed by ldconfig -m <library directory> after experiencing 
difficulties sourcing some essential *.so files.

    After this persistent "nl_langinfo" problem created.
    Ex: launching Perl at the command line ==>
    /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: 
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.2/mach/CORE/libperl.so: Undefined symbol 
"nl_langinfo"


Decided to rebuild & upgrade perl w/ V-5.8.8, but this is producing similar 
problems even at ./configure stage==>
*** Error code 1 (ignored)

    ./miniperl -Ilib configpm --heavy=lib/Config_heavy.pl lib/Config.pm
    /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: ./miniperl: Undefined symbol "nl_langinfo"
    *** Error code 1


Stop in /usr/home/koolsrc/perl/perl-5.8.8.
